What with all this denying he was Deep Throat in his memoir and even telling Tim Noah of Slate that it would be a “terrible” thing if Deep Throat had been in the FBI, I’ve come up with a new idea about Mark Felt. Think about the stuff in the book and the movie All the President’s Men. Using a flower pot to deliver messages. Meeting in dark garages. All this skullduggery with all sorts of dark conspiracy warnings when in fact he was himself a leading figure in a conspiracy of sorts. In the end, then, maybe Deep Felt was and is a wacko.
